The project provides for the creation of a space commensurate with a person inside a large microdistrict, a multifunctional environment for different age groups of the population. The concept is based on a system of pedestrian routes-links that are most convenient for walking. These footpaths cut the section into similar triangles, which makes it possible to offer a uniform shape for filling the space. This system allows you to find individual solutions for each yard. Fillings have several options for forms of various sizes – from small volumes (20 m2) to large areas (800 m2). Each element has its own function and its own relief.
